Restaurants Boulder, Colorado Caribbean Cuisine
The Caribbean category is a bit limiting for this eclectic mix of Mexican, Latin American and South American cuisines. Ají features fresh ceviche, an excellent selection of Chilean and Argentinian wines, and classic Latin cocktails. Start off with empañadas or papas à la Huancaina—baby red potatoes, housemade ricotta cheese, roasted peppers, olives and hard-cooked egg. Inventive main dishes include grilled duck breast with corn-and-chorizo-stuffed Anaheim chile, grilled tiger shrimp skewers with pineapple and jicama escabeche and green rice, and Brazilian seafood stew with jasmine rice and a spiced coconut broth. For dessert, try the milk-soaked white cakes or empañadas with Mexican chocolate and banana-rum ice cream. Happy hour daily 3-6pm and all day on Sunday features $2.50 drafts, $3 house wines, $4 mojitos, $3.50 empañadas and $4 ceviche. Open daily 11am-close. MC, VISA, AMEX, DISC.
